Bethel Band Performs In Concert;
Program Includes Musical Variety
Sophomore-Senior Tests
Befall Students Tuesday
The Bethel College Concert
Band, featured earlier this year
in its annual Fall Pops Concert,
has scheduled another appearance
Friday, March 25, at 8:00 p.m.
in the Fieldhouse auditorium.
This particular event will be
sponsored by the Bethel Women's
Federation, an organization of
Twin City Women interested in
the furtherance of education at
Bethel. The proceeds will be des-ignated
for various Bethel projects.
This is the first Bethel concert
to be sponsored by such an or-ganization
and may set a prece-dent
for the future. Admission
charge will be one dollar for
adults and fifty cents for stu-dents.
The Band will perform some
unusual selections, both sacred and
secular. One of the featured num-bers
will be "Concerto for Trum-pet"
with Duane Perry, a senior
from Des Moines, Iowa, as soloist.
Another number features the mem-bers
of the clarinet section in von
Weber's "Clarinet Concerto."
Among the other pieces in the
program will be "Sine Nomine"
and "English Processional March,"
"If Thou Be Near," a well-known
hymn, and "Blazing Brass," a stir-ring
march.
This year's band, under the
direction of Julius Whitinger,
chairman of the Music Depart-ment,
is composed of sixty mem-bers
and displays increasing
quality. Mr. Whitinger, previous-ly
a member of the U.S. Navy
Band in Washington, D.C., join-ed
the Bethel staff in 1958. His
Pi Gamma Mu, the Bethel chap-ter
of the National Social Science
Honor Society, will sponsor an
open forum on post-graduate edu-cation
Thursday, March 24. Facul-ty
guests will include Dr. Dalphy
Fagerstrom and Dr. James John-son
of the History Department,
Mr. Richard Franklin of the Poli-tical
Science Department, and Dr.

Applications for Resident Assis-tants
are now being sought for
the 1967 school year. The position
is open to any student who is
going to be a junior or senior in
the coming year.
Application forms are available
from Mrs. Ward in the Student
Services office. These are to be
completed and turned in again by
April 1.
Although the work is demand-ing
of time and energy plus un-derstanding
and Christian maturi-ty,
the experience is also reward-ing
to those wanting to serve the
students in a personal way.
David Moberg of the Sociology
Department.
The discussion will mainly con-cern
graduate work in the social
sciences, but all students consider-ing
post-graduate education are
urged to come with any questions
they may have on this subject.
Several new members will be re-ceived
by Pi Gamma Mu at the
meeting.
The forum will be held in the
college building lower level lounge
Thursday at 7:00 p.m.
Pi Gamma Mu will also send
out an interest questionnaire this
week to all students with member-ship
information. A general induc-tion

Johnson, treasurer; and Duane Per-ry,
manager.
Resident Assistants are respon-sible
for a groups cohesiveness
and good morale. They serve not
only as orientation advisors to new
students, but also are to help with
educational, emotional and spirit-ual
needs of students throughout
the year.
Specific duties entail night duty

The Bethel Lettermen's Club is
sponsoring Bible Study sessions
to be held on three evenings in
Edgren Dormitory Lounge. The
dates for the meetings are Thurs-day,
March 24, Thursday, March
31, and Tuesday, April 4, all at
8:30 p.m.
At the March 24 discussion,
Owen Halleen, Assistant Dean of
Students and ex-football coach, will
consider passages from 2 Corin-thians
6:14-7:1 and 1 John 2: 15-
17, under the general topic "Sep-aration
from Worldliness."
Pastor Al Glenn meets with the
group March 31 for a search into
Romans 14 and the subject, "De-cision
on Doubtful Things." Tues-day,
April 4, Dr. Carl H. Lundquist
joins participants in examining
Romans 12 and 13 to look at
"Christian Responsibility."
While all athletes are urged to
attend, it is hoped that other
members of the student body will
be present.
Bethel sophomores and seniors
face special tests Tuesday, March
29 and Wednesday, March 30,
when the college administers two
examination series published by
the Educational Testing Service,
Princeton, New Jersey.
Senior students will participate
Tuesday, March 29 in the Area
Tests program of the ETS Gradu-ate
Record Examinations. These
tests are not to be confused with
the Graduate Record exams which
test eligibility for graduate school.
The Area Tests are offered
merely as a convenience for col-leges
and universities which de-sire
to weigh the effectiveness
of their academic programs by
examining students' test scores.
Three general areas of know-ledge
are examined in the Area
Tests. These fields, Social Science,
Humanities, and Natural Science,
are each covered in separate tests
of the series.
Social Science questions probe
a student's grasp of the broad
field of social science rather than
specialized areas. Understanding of
the nature and history of social
institutions is tested along with
ability to employ these under-standings
in comparisions of cause
and effect, trends, and points of
during semester and spring vaca-tions.
Those planning to apply should
consider the responsibility care-fully.
Assistant Dean of Students
Owen Halleen emphasized this
saying, " These are very impor-tant
people and they are selected
carefully."
Three graduating science stu-dents
have received special oppor-tunities
to further their education.
Pat Fleming, who will be vale-dictorian
at Bethel this year, has
been offered two teaching assis-tantships
at the University of Min-nesota
and has also been accepted
in the graduate school for next
year.
Pat plans to work on a master's
and later a Ph.D. degree, probably
in botany. Her long-range plans
include teaching botany on a col-lege
level.
Dick Ivance and Paul Wicklund
have both been accepted at the
University of Minnesota medical
school for next fall. Dick, while
completing his natural science ma-jor
at Bethel, has worked as a
store room helper and as a lab
instructor in the chemistry depart-ment.
Paul, a chemistry major, has
taken courses both at Bethel and
at the University of Minnesota
but will be finishing at Bethel.
Part of Paul's work at the Univer-sity
has been under a National
view. Data analysis also plays a
role.
Knowledge of literature, phil-osophy,
and the arts is explored
in the Humanities division of
the Tests. Interpretative ability
receives emphasis over know-ledge
of specific facts, although
factual questions make up part
of the test.
Historical periods of expression,
bases for critical judgments and
ethical decisions, and comparison
of particular works are therefore
referred to.
In the Natual Science test, sen-iors
will face questions derived
from readings and data concerning
all areas of science. Basic features
of the scientific method must be
employed in analyzing these quer-ies.
The senior testing procedure
begins at 8:45 a.m. Tuesday,
March 29, and lasts four hours.
While seniors only follow one
day of testing procedure, sopho-mores
will work two days on the
National Guidance Tests. They will
begin with the seniors on March
29 and will continue again the
following day.
The National Guidance Tests for
college sophomores culminate a
series of special examinations of-fered
by the Educational Testing
Service which are available to
schools for classes from the fourth
grade through the college soph-omore
year.
The tests measure educational
progress, and results are used
to guide both individual students
and schools in working toward
educational development.
Bethel sophomores will be tak-ing
the STEP Tests (Sequential
Tests of Educational Progress) of
the National Guidance program.
Reading, Writing, Mathematics,
Science, and Social Studies are the
fields tested. Each test takes 70
minutes.
Educational Testing Service of-fices
prepare profiles for each in-dividual
participant as well as
for the school administering the
exams. Seniors and sophomores
will be receiving their profiles
within a few weeks so they can
determine their individual perfor-mances.

Officials Note
Deadline Dates
Two important dates will soon
be here for students who wish to
alter their second semester sched-ules
without penalty, according to
deadlines announced by the Regis-trar's
Office.
All courses will be considered
incomplete if not dropped on or
before Wednesday, March 3 0 .
Courses dropped after this date
carry a grade of WP (withdrawn
passing) or WF (withdrawn fail-ing)
depending upon the latest
grade report available.
Dr. Paul R. Finlay, Bethel regis-trar,
also reminds students that
any course dropped after Monday,
April 18, the first day of classes
after Easter vacation, will auto-matically
result in a grade of WF
for the course.

To the Editor,
The following motion is now on
the Senate floor and under their
consideration. It should be of gen-eral
campus interest.
"On the basis of evident student
interest and the opportunity for
inter-collegiate interaction with a
more diversified group of colleges,
we recommend that Bethel College
take the steps necessary to or-ganize
and support a hockey team
for varsity competition.
"We believe these bases and the
team are in keeping with our pur-poses
and objectives as a Christian
liberal arts college."

Letters to, the Editor:
Senate Elections Provoke Presidential Candidates Face Issues
Discussion On Leadership
Senate elections are fast approaching, with two declared
candidates for the presidency, Jim Keim, and Kathy Harvie,
and the other elective leadership positions becoming well
filled with declared candidates. Since it will be the persons
here chosen by the student body that will lead it through the
coming year, a treatise on what constitutes a good leader may
be in order to at least encourage careful consideration if not
illumine our thought.
A discussion of leadership qualities may not only focus
attention on the declared candidates, but may save the student
body from the perennial "apathy" in student government
which may be directly correlated to the leaders involved.
(This was alluded to quite specifically in the editorial and a
letter by Mr. Fred Lund appearing in the February 23 issue
of the CLARION.)
There are many common theories regarding leadership.
Some say leaders are born, not made. Others say leadership
is a phenomenon closely related to the situation or group
in which the leader functions. As situations differ the de-mands
for leadership differ. However, a common result of
either theory is the fact that leaders are individuals whose
behavior stimulates the patterning of the behavior of the
group.
Thomas Gordon states that an "individual in positions of
leadership needs to have as his basic aim the tapping and
developing of the creative resources of his group members.
He needs to believe in the sharing of his leadership functions."
Tead in The Art of Leadership states, 'Leadership is the activity
of influencing people to cooperate toward some goal which
they come to find desirable."
Maurice Woolf talks about four basic types of leaders
which he terms the "hard-boiled" autocrat, the benevolent
autocrat, the laissez-faire, and the democratic.
The "hard-boiled" autocrat achieves goals by giving
orders, assigning tasks, making decisions without consulting
the group, and then checking periodically to see if the work
is being done. The system is basically built on fear of expo-sure
or punishment.
People react generally in three ways to this leader. 1. They
become submissive and dependent. 2. They become openly
hostile and express resentment and may fight for reform.
3. They feel hostile and turn this into depression and lack of
hope for the future.
The benevolent autocrat knows what is best for the
group. He is often soft-spoken, reasoning with the group to
bring them to his point-of-view. In the alternatives he presents,
his ideas always seem the best, and no one would choose any
other. He praises people when they agree with him, but has
no pangs of conscience about withholding information from
the group.
He may also disregard information that doesn't agree
with his plans. He often is characterized by saying, 'We want
to find out what the group thinks in this situation," or,
"Now let's be democratic." But his actions don't correlate
with his words.
The group reacts generally in such a way that there is
loss of motivation, resigned submissiveness, and general apa-thy.
The laissez-faire leader seldom offers suggestions to the
group. Everyone is free to express himself. No clear-cut ideas
or goals are defined for the group. He always wants to be
cordial, is generally unagressive, and is quite the opposite to
the "hard-boiled" autocrat.
Very little is accomplished under this type of leadership.
The group loses morale and may fall apart. This leadership
also opens the door wide for anarchy.
The democratic leader believes in the ability of the group
to analyze and discuss problems freely and arrive at sensible
decisions. He uses his position to coordinate the work of the
group and keep them oriented toward group goals using all
the resources of the group. He is wary about small minorities
using special strategy to accomplish their own ends. He always
wants full and adequate coverage and discussion of issues
with a throrough understanding of them.
This leadership leads to independent thought, considera-tion
for varying points of view, and respect for the opinions
and work of every member. Progress is oriented toward group
goals with action following group decision. There is also a
general work enthusiasm with an increase in both the quantity
and quality of production.
Examining Bethel student government over the past
years, we have found traces from each of these categories,
most of them less than democratic. How best may we direct
our choice for this year? In choosing our leaders we must
carefully consider the leadership qualities they possess and
evaluate these qualities upon our criterion of what leader-ship
will best serve ourselves and the entire student body.
Frank states the concept well. 'Modern leadership . . .
is no longer the expression of an aloof domineering person,
but rather as a shared, dynamic relationship in which . . .
leadership cooperates by evoking from the group a circular,
reciprocal, and creative process. Thus leadership emerges as
the way groups of persons today seek their common purpose,
not for or under their leader, but with their leader."
Dear Voters,
Hi! This is Kathy Harvie. Jim
Keim and I are presidential can-didates.
We've gotten together and
decided that all this usual election
fuss that creates enemies and fric-tion
and misery has got to go.
Actually we figure this cam-paign
could be a great deal of fun
if we just go into the whole elec-tion
with the right attitudes. We
decided to start out by meeting
to decide on election issues.
Think there are any issues or
changes needed on this campus?
I was absolutely positive that I
had an issue with which Jim
would disagree.
Confidently I sprang the ques-tion:
"Jim, what would you think
of having Freshman Welcome
Week in the Twin Cities instead
of at Big Trout?" He thoughtfully
stared at the wall, arched his eye-brows,
and brightly said "Say, that
sounds like a good idea!"
"Scratch one debate," thought I.
"Yeh!" he mused. "They could
get acquainted with Twin Cities
e n t e r t ainment opportunities.
Bethel could get a special rate
for a young pops concert. We
could take them on an afternoon
tour of the Twin Cities. Maps
of course should be handed out."
"Um-hum," I agreed. "In addi-tion
the transportation should cost
less, faculty members could be in-troduced,
inconvenience of food
purchasing and preparation could
be handled by the Bethel dining
hall, and we wouldn't have to rent
Big Trout."
"Well, it looks as if we don't
have a debate issue there, Kathy,"
Jim commented.
"Maybe not between you and
I," I replied, "but there are
some students on campus who
are going to oppose changing
tradition. Perhaps we should
have a discussion to explain our
positions and an open forum to
provide for questions from the
audience."
"Agreed," said Jim.
So if you would like to take a
conservative, liberal or middle-of-the-
state stand, come to the LL
Basement lounge on Monday night,
March 28, at 9:00 p.m. Jim and I
will be glad to answer your ques-

Student I.D. Card Memo
To: Editor of the CLARION

Re: Recent memo from the Student
Services Office entitled IDENTIFI-CATION
CARDS
Let me preface my remarks by
saying that it is my opinion (now,
as it was my opinion in 1963 when
the idea of a student identification
card was first suggested to the
Student Senate) that identification
cards displaying the student's pic-ture,
age, year in school, and other
vital statistics are indeed benefi-cial.
My objection is simply that
since the identificaion card issued
by he Steudent Services Office
does not contain the student's age,
year in school . . . in reality it is
worth no more than a personal
photograph with Bethel College

and P.O. number on the back in

Shakespearean Student Constructs
Scaled Elizabethean Globe Theater
by Barb Conway
Instead of writing the four term
papers for Miss Bohlmeyer's Shake-speare
course, Bob MonrOe, a
Bethel senior, is making a scale
model of the front half of Shake-speare's
Globe Playhouse.
Since last November Bob has
been piecing together this struc-ture
which will, when finished, be
forty-two inches across and over
thirty inches high. A book by Ir-ties
as anything from "repairing
leaky valves to inspecting new
diamond rings."
At present, however, the num-ber
of diamond-wearers among
the Manorite population is re-duced
from last year, observes
Mr. Olson. So too, is the male
traffic in the Manor's lounge
area, causing one to suspect a
correlation between the two
phenomena.
Previous to coming to Bethel
in 1964, the Olson's were Wiscon-sonians.

win Smith, Shakespeare's Globe
Playhouse, has scale drawings and
detailed descriptions which have
served as Bob's guide.
Having experience in wood-working
and the necessary tools
with which to work were factors
which influenced Bob to under-take
a project such as this. He
has spent at least one hundred
fifty hours on the project and
often spends twenty hours a
postoffice can, except oveirseas
mailing.
While it was mentioned that
male traffic at Idaho Manor has
decreased somewhat this year,
Mr. Olson maintains that incom-ing
mail traffic in the postoff ice
has increased — 25 percent over
last year.
Until they arrived in St. Paul
to look for housing, the possibility
of becoming houseparents had nev-er
occurred to the Olson's. How-ever,
when approached with such
a proposal they eagerly accepted
it.
Understandably, they had some
doubts about their decision. In-creasing
one's family from "zero
to 36 children" requires an adven-turous
spirit. They even "expect-ed
some disappointments" which
to this day have never been rea-lized.
Instead Mr. and Mrs. Olson
can say, "They're a wonderful
group of girls. They have meant
a lot of enjoyment to us."
Part of this excellent conduct
record is the result of the
screening procedure which each
Manor applicant undergoes. Ex-plains
Mr. Olson, "Living at the
Manor is a reward for good
scholastic and dorm life record."
While it is the responsibility
of Mr. Olson to assure the main-tenance
of the Manor, it is Mrs.
Olson who takes charge of the
"home-making." She faithfully re-members
each girl on her birthday
with some home-made treats, those
week cutting out wood, staining
pieces, and gluing parts together.
In spite of all the intricate de-tails
and painstaking labor, he en-joys
putting the model together
and seeing the theater take shape.
Bob has used birch plywood
painted white and solid birch
stained dark oak to resemble the
Globe Playhouse as it is supposed
to have looked. Slats of the stained
birch on the outside white wall
represent the solid oak beams and
plastered mud which went between
the beams in the actual theater
For the interior of the play-house,
either supports of dark
"oak" or walls of white "plas-ter"
have been used.
The carefully wrought railings,
doorways, stairways, and trim
around the windows give the model
a look of reality. Trap doors, hid-den
back stairways, and side rooms
are included in the theater.
For the benefit of the person
who wishes to examine the various
parts of the playhouse, the theater
comes apart. Each of the three
floors can be lifted off so that the
one underneath, even the base-ment,
can be seen.
Bob has been able to make
practical use of this model even
though it is not yet complete.
Some of Bethel's student teach-ers
have had him exhibit the
model and explain it to their
high school English classes.
On April 18, Bob will present
the completed theater to the Bethel
freshman English classes. The mo-del
will then remain with the
school to be used by future stu-dents
who study Shakespeare.
aspects of home life which are so
missed.
Also during finals when time
is so precious to students, Mrs.
Olson prepares snacks for her
girls so that their time need not
be interrupted. Surely she has
succeeded in creating a "homey"
atmosphere at the Manor, where
all the residents consider them-selves
part of one "big family."

With the first game at Hamline
less than three weeks away, on
April 5th, baseball practice is in
full swing. A fine turnout of 27
athletes marked the opening of
practice March 7.
Later the squad was trimmed
to a more manageable size of 22.
According to coach Dave Cox, this
is Bethel's best baseball turnout
in both number and quality.
Presently the team is looking
forward to its spring trip, the
first since 1963 when they tour-ed
Southern Illinois and the Chi-cago
area. Fifteen players will
make the trip along with Coach
Cox.
The squad will leave the morn-ing
of April 7 and travel to Fay-ette,
Iowa, for a doubleheader
that afternoon with Upper Iowa

"How many times have you ceased to like someone?" he asked.
"As many as I've ever liked. My friends pass from my embracing
of them; I embrace their shadows."
"None remains?"
"None. Why should any? Each has one, two, possibly three things
to say. After that, it's slightly varied repititions which they present,
proudly or apologetically, to the friendship. Let them tell me at once,
so that we part pleasantly; if they resist, I tear it from them.
Why won't a person reveal himself in a five minute speech and
take no more of his friend's time; indeed, dismiss his friend after the
speech and find some new one to benefit from the recitation."
"You preclude the possibility of ferment from many years' friend-ship.
Have you never experienced a\ friendship which grew and grew
upon itself?"
"How does a man grow fat eating his own flesh? After such a
length of time, the person is surely an uninspiring extension of one-self.
But I've kept constant company — friends who were uncoopera-tive,
withholding that which would satisfy me, the thing they had
which I had not.
A few who did not offer up their essence in the prescribed period
of time, I persisted after for the value of that unyeilding essence. But
I changed my mind: one day is more than ample time in which to run
a friendship's course. He who keeps his silence past the first day is not ,
worth pursuing.
It accounts for the way you looked at me. You thought I'd spoken.
I thought you had forgot those words which you possess outside my
mind or tucked them damply in a corner where they have mildewed
quite away. We released each other curtly from that sanctioned bon-dage,
and rightly so.
Why should we come discuss it now? Have you recovered that
which could attract me, or I which finds you fascinated?"
"I have many friends, all living past one hour or day, who yet
excite me."
"Their success in keeping you dissatisfied is the explanation.
Dissatisfaction is in the definition of exciting relationships. Complacency
is a common element in unstirred but continuing ones — those of
comfortable friends. We have assimilated these friends' uniqueness
and carry them for sentiment's sake. Until they hinder us, and then
all thought of sentiment is gone. We trample them.
"Here the final test of completed exploitation: If you abandon
a friend who threatens your security without regret. Those who know
too much of us from our utilization of them, we destroy, crush; we
negate any notion of sparing them."
He spoke slowly. "Things have a way of turning around in the
middle on us. It's ourselves first and last. A neat parodox that we must
rid ourselves of those we pursued so ardously."
"Then you agree. What attracts us in another is his bit of per-ception
and possession outside our reach. We gain a friend for what
he has beyond us. A man doesn't carry on his clandestine activities
for sex alone. Not if he calls her 'friend' and she functions as one.
"Besides that drive to supplement ourselves, what's friendship
but a common place and a scrap of time and a few paltry half-formed
mutual professions of good-will."
He sighed. "The satisfaction we derive is a filling in of gaps we
sometimes refuse to admit exist. On those rare occasions we afford
ourselves honesty, we know this is the way the world runs. Friendship
is exploitation. God, we are heathen."
She laughed. "You are, not I. I say the words, but you believe them."
Baseball Squad Plans Spring Season;
Coach Cox Presents Optimistic View
by Ron Harris
Franklin D. Roosevelt, whom many people regard as one of the
greatest Presidents in American History, utilized the slogan of "A New
Deal" when seeking the office of the Presidency in the 1930's. The na-tion
was in desperate straits and being cognizant of this he offered the
people a New Deal, which would once again provide them with jobs,
economic stability and most importantly, a sense of security.
John F. Kennedy seized the slogan "A New Frontier" when aspir-ing
for the nation's top office in 1960. He had grown weary of the
complacency of Americans and stated that he wanted "the torch to be
passed on to a new generation of Americans." The New Frontier was
to consist of a change in attitude, a time when the United States
would resume its first place position.
It is true that both of the aforementioned are an over-simplifica-tion,
but for all practical purposes, it suffices here to recognize that
in each of the above instances slogans served to unite people
behind their cause. The slogan was identified with the man, the man
with the party and the party with the people. This is one useful
function of slogans.
It would be well if here at Bethel such a slogan were existent not
so much in little deeds as in spirit. Perhaps we could attach a name
to it . . . maybe Wider Horizons. It would consist of the kind of visions
that make us aware of the difficulties, problems and hardships of
others. It is only in so doing that we will receive that inkling of under-standing
of our fellow students and in some way be able to help them.
This in a sports column? There is really no rational reason other
than to say that I have detected a unique fellowship among athletes
and would like to see it perpetuated throughout the entire student body.
Athletes are of that curious breed which forms a certain strata
of the social life of a college campus. Intermingle with them, and
you will discover they are more understanding of one another than
you are of your lab partner, floor counselor or any other friend.
They understand how it feels to get jarred on a play, sprain an ankle
or play ball with jammed fingers—mainly because they have prob-ably
had a similar experience. Strangely, this understanding carries
over from the gridiron to the classroom to personal problems. This
understanding gives way to patience and finally to toleration.
The goal of our Christian lives should be to serve Jesus Christ.
The supreme test of this servitude is perhaps not in how well we under-stand
our fellow man as how much of an attempt we make to do so.
"Wider Horizons" could affect all of us.

Austin will need to be replaced.
Sophomores Terry Kuntz and
John Delich, junior Cabot Dow,

candidates for the position. Fresh-men
Doug Anderson and Bill Eng-land

Paul Nelson is also being consid-ered

Tom Corneil are back, along
with speedster Bob Nolin.
Senior mainstay Jerry Moulton

Intra-School Wrestlers Excite Fans;
Final Bouts Slated For Wednesday
Promising Baseball Personnel
by Jerry Loomis
The first round of this year's
Intramural Wrestling Tournament
was held on Friday, March 19. De-spite
disappointment in only hav-ing
half the number of entrants in
last year's tourney, wrestling fans
were treated to an exciting even-ing
of hard-fought grappling.
Out of eleven matches fought.
seven were won by pins, two by
decision, and two by forfeit. In the
130-pound class, Isaias Cervantes
was a standout, taking the cham-
In a nip and tuck battle, the
"Pit" outlasted the Dorm Council
in a 43-42 victory to gain the Ed-gren
Basketball Championship. Ron
Pederson's rebounding and shoot-ing
proved too potent for Lantz
Leonard's deadly shooting and Paul
I. Johnson's driving.
After leading most of the first
half, the Council had to settle
for a 19-all half time score.
Duane Perkins made what
maq have been the game saving
defensive play by blocking an
open council shot with 3 seconds
remaining in the game. Peder-son
led the winners with 22
while Leonard, Paul I. Johnson
and Paul V. Johnson paced the
gallant losers with 12 apiece.
Stemming from the dorm tour-
Bethel's trackmen ran t h e i r
first meet of the year, a triangular
practice meet with Mankato, Gus-tavus,
and Westmar on Mankato's
indoor track. Bethel's runners did
well considering they have only
been practicing for two weeks and
Mankato and Gustavus have been
practicing most of the winter.
Bethel and Westmar were very
close in the scoring behind Man-kato
and Gustavus.
The men who put Bethel on the
score sheets were Jim Hammer in
the broad jump, triple jump, and
sixty yard dash, Bill Malyon and
Andy Lehman in the hurdles,
Dave Pearson in the high jump
and triple jump, and Dave Norman
in the two mile run.
Coach Gene Glader feels that
the team can have a very success-ful
season if those who are out
pionship. The winner in the 137-
pound group was Terry Muck, win-ning
by forfeit over R. Olson.
Moving up to 145-pound weight
class, Berry Bergman took a for-fet
decision from Jim Spurgeon,
and will face Jim Brand (who
had a bye) in the championship
round.
In the 160-pound class, Dick Ol-son
pinned his man at 5:01 of the
first period, and will be facing Ed-gar
Peterman in the semi-finals.

ney came a challenge from the
student residents of the Midwest
Hebrew Mission to play the dorm.
The residents of Edgren selected
an All-Star team of eight players
to represent them in the All-School
Mixer game played last Saturday
night.
The All-Stars maintained their
38-37 halftime lead to come out
on top 76-73 in the foul plagued
game. Despite their excellent
teamwork the Mission Boys were
unable to counteract the second
half scoring of Craig Carmean,
Doug Carlson and Dale Gilmore.

Bill Malyon pumped in 19 and 18
respectively for the losers.

personnel can fill the team gaps
in the distance runs and the shot
put.
Later in the season when the
meets move outdoors there will
also be a spot in the discus which
will need filling. There are three

Goodrich.
The 152-pound class was dom-inated
by Coach Dan Phelps. In
his first match, he overwhelmed
Steve Brown, 22-6. In the finals,
he will be grappling with Lynn
Bergfalk. Lynn pinned Dave An-derson
with just three seconds
remaining in the final period in
the most exciting match of the
evening. However, the result be-tween
Bergfalk and Phelps seems
inevitable. Who beats the wrestling
coach?
In both the 167 and 191-pound
weight groups, all the matches
were decided by pins. In the
lower weight class, Mel Fahs
proved victorious over Dave Cox,
and D. Anderson fell to Bob Ol-son.
Fahs now must test his skills
against those of Craig Carmean in
the semi-finals, while Olson awaits
the outcome of that contest.
The 177-pound class saw Randy
Inouye pin Ed Stone. In a very
close, hard-fought battle, Barney
Cox decisioned Dave Norman, 5-3.
Finally, there are two entrants
in the heavyweight division. In
the "battle of the big men," Don
Martin was scheduled to grapple
with Orlyn Lundborg during last
evening's consolation and semi-final
rounds.
As far as intramural team totals
go, before the press time the
Squires were out in front. But who
knows what may happen? Wrest-ling
fans will want to be there to
find out. The championship round
is being held tonight in the Field-house.

to the trip," says Coach Cox. "It
is a very unifying experience for
the members of the team and
should lend to the spiritual ben-efit
of the squad."
After the trip, the season sched-ule
shows doubleheaders with the
University of Minnesota Morris,
River Falls, Mankato State, Stout
State, Northland, Pillsbury, Eau
Claire, and single games with La
Crosse and Carleton.
Coach Cox said this was the
"toughest schedule a Bethel base-ball
team has taken on. It is also
the best — the kind of schedule
we should be playing."
Twelve returning veterans,
including seven regulars, prom-spots
open in the distance events

Sophomore-Senior Tests
Befall Students Tuesday
The Bethel College Concert
Band, featured earlier this year
in its annual Fall Pops Concert,
has scheduled another appearance
Friday, March 25, at 8:00 p.m.
in the Fieldhouse auditorium.
This particular event will be
sponsored by the Bethel Women's
Federation, an organization of
Twin City Women interested in
the furtherance of education at
Bethel. The proceeds will be des-ignated
for various Bethel projects.
This is the first Bethel concert
to be sponsored by such an or-ganization
and may set a prece-dent
for the future. Admission
charge will be one dollar for
adults and fifty cents for stu-dents.
The Band will perform some
unusual selections, both sacred and
secular. One of the featured num-bers
will be "Concerto for Trum-pet"
with Duane Perry, a senior
from Des Moines, Iowa, as soloist.
Another number features the mem-bers
of the clarinet section in von
Weber's "Clarinet Concerto."
Among the other pieces in the
program will be "Sine Nomine"
and "English Processional March,"
"If Thou Be Near," a well-known
hymn, and "Blazing Brass," a stir-ring
march.
This year's band, under the
direction of Julius Whitinger,
chairman of the Music Depart-ment,
is composed of sixty mem-bers
and displays increasing
quality. Mr. Whitinger, previous-ly
a member of the U.S. Navy

Bethel sophomores and seniors
face special tests Tuesday, March
29 and Wednesday, March 30,
when the college administers two
examination series published by
the Educational Testing Service,
Princeton, New Jersey.
Senior students will participate
Tuesday, March 29 in the Area
Tests program of the ETS Gradu-ate
Record Examinations. These
tests are not to be confused with
the Graduate Record exams which
test eligibility for graduate school.
The Area Tests are offered
merely as a convenience for col-leges
and universities which de-sire
to weigh the effectiveness
of their academic programs by
examining students' test scores.
Three general areas of know-ledge
are examined in the Area
Tests. These fields, Social Science,
Humanities, and Natural Science,
are each covered in separate tests
of the series.
Social Science questions probe
a student's grasp of the broad
field of social science rather than
specialized areas. Understanding of
the nature and history of social
institutions is tested along with
ability to employ these under-standings
in comparisions of cause
and effect, trends, and points of
during semester and spring vaca-tions.
Those planning to apply should
consider the responsibility care-fully.
Assistant Dean of Students
Owen Halleen emphasized this
saying, " These are very impor-tant
people and they are selected
carefully."
Three graduating science stu-dents
have received special oppor-tunities
to further their education.
Pat Fleming, who will be vale-dictorian
at Bethel this year, has
been offered two teaching assis-tantships
at the University of Min-nesota
and has also been accepted
in the graduate school for next
year.
Pat plans to work on a master's
and later a Ph.D. degree, probably
in botany. Her long-range plans
include teaching botany on a col-lege
level.
Dick Ivance and Paul Wicklund
have both been accepted at the
University of Minnesota medical
school for next fall. Dick, while
completing his natural science ma-jor
at Bethel, has worked as a
store room helper and as a lab
instructor in the chemistry depart-ment.
Paul, a chemistry major, has
taken courses both at Bethel and
at the University of Minnesota
but will be finishing at Bethel.
Part of Paul's work at the Univer-sity
has been under a National
view. Data analysis also plays a
role.
Knowledge of literature, phil-osophy,
and the arts is explored
in the Humanities division of
the Tests. Interpretative ability
receives emphasis over know-ledge
of specific facts, although
factual questions make up part
of the test.
Historical periods of expression,
bases for critical judgments and
ethical decisions, and comparison
of particular works are therefore
referred to.
In the Natual Science test, sen-iors
will face questions derived
from readings and data concerning
all areas of science. Basic features
of the scientific method must be
employed in analyzing these quer-ies.
The senior testing procedure
begins at 8:45 a.m. Tuesday,
March 29, and lasts four hours.
While seniors only follow one
day of testing procedure, sopho-mores
will work two days on the
National Guidance Tests. They will
begin with the seniors on March
29 and will continue again the
following day.
The National Guidance Tests for
college sophomores culminate a
series of special examinations of-fered
by the Educational Testing
Service which are available to
schools for classes from the fourth
grade through the college soph-omore
year.
The tests measure educational
progress, and results are used
to guide both individual students
and schools in working toward
educational development.
Bethel sophomores will be tak-ing
the STEP Tests (Sequential
Tests of Educational Progress) of
the National Guidance program.
Reading, Writing, Mathematics,
Science, and Social Studies are the
fields tested. Each test takes 70
minutes.
Educational Testing Service of-fices
prepare profiles for each in-dividual
participant as well as
for the school administering the
exams. Seniors and sophomores
will be receiving their profiles
within a few weeks so they can
determine their individual perfor-mances.

Letters to, the Editor:
Senate Elections Provoke Presidential Candidates Face Issues
Discussion On Leadership
Senate elections are fast approaching, with two declared
candidates for the presidency, Jim Keim, and Kathy Harvie,
and the other elective leadership positions becoming well
filled with declared candidates. Since it will be the persons
here chosen by the student body that will lead it through the
coming year, a treatise on what constitutes a good leader may
be in order to at least encourage careful consideration if not
illumine our thought.
A discussion of leadership qualities may not only focus
attention on the declared candidates, but may save the student
body from the perennial "apathy" in student government
which may be directly correlated to the leaders involved.
(This was alluded to quite specifically in the editorial and a
letter by Mr. Fred Lund appearing in the February 23 issue
of the CLARION.)
There are many common theories regarding leadership.
Some say leaders are born, not made. Others say leadership
is a phenomenon closely related to the situation or group
in which the leader functions. As situations differ the de-mands
for leadership differ. However, a common result of
either theory is the fact that leaders are individuals whose
behavior stimulates the patterning of the behavior of the
group.
Thomas Gordon states that an "individual in positions of
leadership needs to have as his basic aim the tapping and
developing of the creative resources of his group members.
He needs to believe in the sharing of his leadership functions."
Tead in The Art of Leadership states, 'Leadership is the activity
of influencing people to cooperate toward some goal which
they come to find desirable."
Maurice Woolf talks about four basic types of leaders
which he terms the "hard-boiled" autocrat, the benevolent
autocrat, the laissez-faire, and the democratic.
The "hard-boiled" autocrat achieves goals by giving
orders, assigning tasks, making decisions without consulting
the group, and then checking periodically to see if the work
is being done. The system is basically built on fear of expo-sure
or punishment.
People react generally in three ways to this leader. 1. They
become submissive and dependent. 2. They become openly
hostile and express resentment and may fight for reform.
3. They feel hostile and turn this into depression and lack of
hope for the future.
The benevolent autocrat knows what is best for the
group. He is often soft-spoken, reasoning with the group to
bring them to his point-of-view. In the alternatives he presents,
his ideas always seem the best, and no one would choose any
other. He praises people when they agree with him, but has
no pangs of conscience about withholding information from
the group.
He may also disregard information that doesn't agree
with his plans. He often is characterized by saying, 'We want
to find out what the group thinks in this situation," or,
"Now let's be democratic." But his actions don't correlate
with his words.
The group reacts generally in such a way that there is
loss of motivation, resigned submissiveness, and general apa-thy.
The laissez-faire leader seldom offers suggestions to the
group. Everyone is free to express himself. No clear-cut ideas
or goals are defined for the group. He always wants to be
cordial, is generally unagressive, and is quite the opposite to
the "hard-boiled" autocrat.
Very little is accomplished under this type of leadership.
The group loses morale and may fall apart. This leadership
also opens the door wide for anarchy.
The democratic leader believes in the ability of the group
to analyze and discuss problems freely and arrive at sensible
decisions. He uses his position to coordinate the work of the
group and keep them oriented toward group goals using all
the resources of the group. He is wary about small minorities
using special strategy to accomplish their own ends. He always
wants full and adequate coverage and discussion of issues
with a throrough understanding of them.
This leadership leads to independent thought, considera-tion
for varying points of view, and respect for the opinions
and work of every member. Progress is oriented toward group
goals with action following group decision. There is also a
general work enthusiasm with an increase in both the quantity
and quality of production.
Examining Bethel student government over the past
years, we have found traces from each of these categories,
most of them less than democratic. How best may we direct
our choice for this year? In choosing our leaders we must
carefully consider the leadership qualities they possess and
evaluate these qualities upon our criterion of what leader-ship
will best serve ourselves and the entire student body.
Frank states the concept well. 'Modern leadership . . .
is no longer the expression of an aloof domineering person,
but rather as a shared, dynamic relationship in which . . .
leadership cooperates by evoking from the group a circular,
reciprocal, and creative process. Thus leadership emerges as
the way groups of persons today seek their common purpose,
not for or under their leader, but with their leader."
Dear Voters,
Hi! This is Kathy Harvie. Jim
Keim and I are presidential can-didates.
We've gotten together and
decided that all this usual election
fuss that creates enemies and fric-tion
and misery has got to go.
Actually we figure this cam-paign
could be a great deal of fun
if we just go into the whole elec-tion
with the right attitudes. We
decided to start out by meeting
to decide on election issues.
Think there are any issues or
changes needed on this campus?
I was absolutely positive that I
had an issue with which Jim
would disagree.
Confidently I sprang the ques-tion:
"Jim, what would you think
of having Freshman Welcome
Week in the Twin Cities instead
of at Big Trout?" He thoughtfully
stared at the wall, arched his eye-brows,
and brightly said "Say, that
sounds like a good idea!"
"Scratch one debate," thought I.
"Yeh!" he mused. "They could
get acquainted with Twin Cities
e n t e r t ainment opportunities.
Bethel could get a special rate
for a young pops concert. We
could take them on an afternoon
tour of the Twin Cities. Maps
of course should be handed out."
"Um-hum," I agreed. "In addi-tion
the transportation should cost
less, faculty members could be in-troduced,
inconvenience of food
purchasing and preparation could
be handled by the Bethel dining
hall, and we wouldn't have to rent
Big Trout."
"Well, it looks as if we don't
have a debate issue there, Kathy,"
Jim commented.
"Maybe not between you and
I," I replied, "but there are
some students on campus who
are going to oppose changing
tradition. Perhaps we should
have a discussion to explain our
positions and an open forum to
provide for questions from the
audience."
"Agreed," said Jim.
So if you would like to take a
conservative, liberal or middle-of-the-
state stand, come to the LL
Basement lounge on Monday night,
March 28, at 9:00 p.m. Jim and I
will be glad to answer your ques-

Student I.D. Card Memo

Let me preface my remarks by
saying that it is my opinion (now,

the idea of a student identification

cards displaying the student's pic-ture,
age, year in school, and other
vital statistics are indeed benefi-cial.
My objection is simply that
since the identificaion card issued
by he Steudent Services Office
does not contain the student's age,

Shakespearean Student Constructs
Scaled Elizabethean Globe Theater
by Barb Conway
Instead of writing the four term
papers for Miss Bohlmeyer's Shake-speare
course, Bob MonrOe, a
Bethel senior, is making a scale
model of the front half of Shake-speare's
Globe Playhouse.
Since last November Bob has
been piecing together this struc-ture
which will, when finished, be
forty-two inches across and over
thirty inches high. A book by Ir-ties
as anything from "repairing
leaky valves to inspecting new
diamond rings."
At present, however, the num-ber
of diamond-wearers among
the Manorite population is re-duced
from last year, observes
Mr. Olson. So too, is the male
traffic in the Manor's lounge
area, causing one to suspect a
correlation between the two
phenomena.
Previous to coming to Bethel
in 1964, the Olson's were Wiscon-sonians.

win Smith, Shakespeare's Globe
Playhouse, has scale drawings and
detailed descriptions which have
served as Bob's guide.
Having experience in wood-working
and the necessary tools
with which to work were factors
which influenced Bob to under-take
a project such as this. He
has spent at least one hundred
fifty hours on the project and
often spends twenty hours a
postoffice can, except oveirseas
mailing.
While it was mentioned that
male traffic at Idaho Manor has
decreased somewhat this year,
Mr. Olson maintains that incom-ing
mail traffic in the postoff ice
has increased — 25 percent over
last year.
Until they arrived in St. Paul
to look for housing, the possibility
of becoming houseparents had nev-er
occurred to the Olson's. How-ever,
when approached with such
a proposal they eagerly accepted
it.
Understandably, they had some
doubts about their decision. In-creasing
one's family from "zero
to 36 children" requires an adven-turous
spirit. They even "expect-ed
some disappointments" which
to this day have never been rea-lized.
Instead Mr. and Mrs. Olson
can say, "They're a wonderful
group of girls. They have meant
a lot of enjoyment to us."
Part of this excellent conduct
record is the result of the
screening procedure which each
Manor applicant undergoes. Ex-plains
Mr. Olson, "Living at the
Manor is a reward for good
scholastic and dorm life record."
While it is the responsibility
of Mr. Olson to assure the main-tenance
of the Manor, it is Mrs.
Olson who takes charge of the
"home-making." She faithfully re-members
each girl on her birthday
with some home-made treats, those
week cutting out wood, staining
pieces, and gluing parts together.
In spite of all the intricate de-tails
and painstaking labor, he en-joys
putting the model together
and seeing the theater take shape.
Bob has used birch plywood
painted white and solid birch
stained dark oak to resemble the
Globe Playhouse as it is supposed
to have looked. Slats of the stained
birch on the outside white wall
represent the solid oak beams and
plastered mud which went between
the beams in the actual theater
For the interior of the play-house,
either supports of dark
"oak" or walls of white "plas-ter"
have been used.
The carefully wrought railings,
doorways, stairways, and trim
around the windows give the model
a look of reality. Trap doors, hid-den
back stairways, and side rooms
are included in the theater.
For the benefit of the person
who wishes to examine the various
parts of the playhouse, the theater
comes apart. Each of the three
floors can be lifted off so that the
one underneath, even the base-ment,
can be seen.
Bob has been able to make
practical use of this model even
though it is not yet complete.
Some of Bethel's student teach-ers
have had him exhibit the
model and explain it to their
high school English classes.
On April 18, Bob will present
the completed theater to the Bethel
freshman English classes. The mo-del
will then remain with the
school to be used by future stu-dents
who study Shakespeare.
aspects of home life which are so
missed.
Also during finals when time
is so precious to students, Mrs.
Olson prepares snacks for her
girls so that their time need not
be interrupted. Surely she has
succeeded in creating a "homey"
atmosphere at the Manor, where
all the residents consider them-selves
part of one "big family."

With the first game at Hamline
less than three weeks away, on
April 5th, baseball practice is in
full swing. A fine turnout of 27
athletes marked the opening of
practice March 7.
Later the squad was trimmed
to a more manageable size of 22.
According to coach Dave Cox, this
is Bethel's best baseball turnout
in both number and quality.
Presently the team is looking
forward to its spring trip, the
first since 1963 when they tour-ed
Southern Illinois and the Chi-cago
area. Fifteen players will
make the trip along with Coach
Cox.
The squad will leave the morn-ing
of April 7 and travel to Fay-ette,
Iowa, for a doubleheader
that afternoon with Upper Iowa
University of the I.A.C. The Iowa
school is comparable in size to
Bethel and sports a good team.

"How many times have you ceased to like someone?" he asked.
"As many as I've ever liked. My friends pass from my embracing
of them; I embrace their shadows."
"None remains?"
"None. Why should any? Each has one, two, possibly three things
to say. After that, it's slightly varied repititions which they present,
proudly or apologetically, to the friendship. Let them tell me at once,
so that we part pleasantly; if they resist, I tear it from them.
Why won't a person reveal himself in a five minute speech and
take no more of his friend's time; indeed, dismiss his friend after the
speech and find some new one to benefit from the recitation."
"You preclude the possibility of ferment from many years' friend-ship.
Have you never experienced a\ friendship which grew and grew
upon itself?"
"How does a man grow fat eating his own flesh? After such a
length of time, the person is surely an uninspiring extension of one-self.
But I've kept constant company — friends who were uncoopera-tive,
withholding that which would satisfy me, the thing they had
which I had not.
A few who did not offer up their essence in the prescribed period
of time, I persisted after for the value of that unyeilding essence. But
I changed my mind: one day is more than ample time in which to run
a friendship's course. He who keeps his silence past the first day is not ,
worth pursuing.
It accounts for the way you looked at me. You thought I'd spoken.
I thought you had forgot those words which you possess outside my
mind or tucked them damply in a corner where they have mildewed
quite away. We released each other curtly from that sanctioned bon-dage,
and rightly so.
Why should we come discuss it now? Have you recovered that
which could attract me, or I which finds you fascinated?"
"I have many friends, all living past one hour or day, who yet
excite me."
"Their success in keeping you dissatisfied is the explanation.
Dissatisfaction is in the definition of exciting relationships. Complacency
is a common element in unstirred but continuing ones — those of
comfortable friends. We have assimilated these friends' uniqueness
and carry them for sentiment's sake. Until they hinder us, and then
all thought of sentiment is gone. We trample them.
"Here the final test of completed exploitation: If you abandon
a friend who threatens your security without regret. Those who know
too much of us from our utilization of them, we destroy, crush; we
negate any notion of sparing them."
He spoke slowly. "Things have a way of turning around in the
middle on us. It's ourselves first and last. A neat parodox that we must
rid ourselves of those we pursued so ardously."
"Then you agree. What attracts us in another is his bit of per-ception
and possession outside our reach. We gain a friend for what
he has beyond us. A man doesn't carry on his clandestine activities
for sex alone. Not if he calls her 'friend' and she functions as one.
"Besides that drive to supplement ourselves, what's friendship
but a common place and a scrap of time and a few paltry half-formed
mutual professions of good-will."
He sighed. "The satisfaction we derive is a filling in of gaps we
sometimes refuse to admit exist. On those rare occasions we afford
ourselves honesty, we know this is the way the world runs. Friendship
is exploitation. God, we are heathen."
She laughed. "You are, not I. I say the words, but you believe them."
Baseball Squad Plans Spring Season;
Coach Cox Presents Optimistic View
by Ron Harris
Franklin D. Roosevelt, whom many people regard as one of the
greatest Presidents in American History, utilized the slogan of "A New
Deal" when seeking the office of the Presidency in the 1930's. The na-tion
was in desperate straits and being cognizant of this he offered the
people a New Deal, which would once again provide them with jobs,
economic stability and most importantly, a sense of security.
John F. Kennedy seized the slogan "A New Frontier" when aspir-ing
for the nation's top office in 1960. He had grown weary of the
complacency of Americans and stated that he wanted "the torch to be
passed on to a new generation of Americans." The New Frontier was
to consist of a change in attitude, a time when the United States
would resume its first place position.
It is true that both of the aforementioned are an over-simplifica-tion,
but for all practical purposes, it suffices here to recognize that
in each of the above instances slogans served to unite people
behind their cause. The slogan was identified with the man, the man
with the party and the party with the people. This is one useful
function of slogans.
It would be well if here at Bethel such a slogan were existent not
so much in little deeds as in spirit. Perhaps we could attach a name
to it . . . maybe Wider Horizons. It would consist of the kind of visions
that make us aware of the difficulties, problems and hardships of
others. It is only in so doing that we will receive that inkling of under-standing
of our fellow students and in some way be able to help them.
This in a sports column? There is really no rational reason other
than to say that I have detected a unique fellowship among athletes
and would like to see it perpetuated throughout the entire student body.
Athletes are of that curious breed which forms a certain strata
of the social life of a college campus. Intermingle with them, and
you will discover they are more understanding of one another than
you are of your lab partner, floor counselor or any other friend.
They understand how it feels to get jarred on a play, sprain an ankle
or play ball with jammed fingers—mainly because they have prob-ably
had a similar experience. Strangely, this understanding carries
over from the gridiron to the classroom to personal problems. This
understanding gives way to patience and finally to toleration.
The goal of our Christian lives should be to serve Jesus Christ.
The supreme test of this servitude is perhaps not in how well we under-stand
our fellow man as how much of an attempt we make to do so.
"Wider Horizons" could affect all of us.

The first round of this year's
Intramural Wrestling Tournament
was held on Friday, March 19. De-spite
disappointment in only hav-ing

last year's tourney, wrestling fans
were treated to an exciting even-ing
of hard-fought grappling.
Out of eleven matches fought.
seven were won by pins, two by
decision, and two by forfeit. In the
130-pound class, Isaias Cervantes
was a standout, taking the cham-
In a nip and tuck battle, the
"Pit" outlasted the Dorm Council
in a 43-42 victory to gain the Ed-gren
Basketball Championship. Ron
Pederson's rebounding and shoot-ing
proved too potent for Lantz
Leonard's deadly shooting and Paul
I. Johnson's driving.
After leading most of the first
half, the Council had to settle
for a 19-all half time score.
Duane Perkins made what

defensive play by blocking an
open council shot with 3 seconds
remaining in the game. Peder-son

and Paul V. Johnson paced the

Bethel's trackmen ran t h e i r
first meet of the year, a triangular
practice meet with Mankato, Gus-tavus,
and Westmar on Mankato's
indoor track. Bethel's runners did
well considering they have only
been practicing for two weeks and
Mankato and Gustavus have been
practicing most of the winter.
Bethel and Westmar were very
close in the scoring behind Man-kato
and Gustavus.
The men who put Bethel on the
score sheets were Jim Hammer in
the broad jump, triple jump, and
sixty yard dash, Bill Malyon and
Andy Lehman in the hurdles,
Dave Pearson in the high jump
and triple jump, and Dave Norman
in the two mile run.
Coach Gene Glader feels that
the team can have a very success-ful
season if those who are out

pound group was Terry Muck, win-ning
by forfeit over R. Olson.
Moving up to 145-pound weight
class, Berry Bergman took a for-fet
decision from Jim Spurgeon,
and will face Jim Brand (who
had a bye) in the championship
round.
In the 160-pound class, Dick Ol-son

ney came a challenge from the
student residents of the Midwest
Hebrew Mission to play the dorm.
The residents of Edgren selected
an All-Star team of eight players
to represent them in the All-School
Mixer game played last Saturday
night.
The All-Stars maintained their
38-37 halftime lead to come out
on top 76-73 in the foul plagued
game. Despite their excellent
teamwork the Mission Boys were
unable to counteract the second
half scoring of Craig Carmean,

will need filling. There are three

Goodrich.
The 152-pound class was dom-inated
by Coach Dan Phelps. In
his first match, he overwhelmed
Steve Brown, 22-6. In the finals,
he will be grappling with Lynn
Bergfalk. Lynn pinned Dave An-derson
with just three seconds
remaining in the final period in
the most exciting match of the
evening. However, the result be-tween
Bergfalk and Phelps seems
inevitable. Who beats the wrestling
coach?
In both the 167 and 191-pound
weight groups, all the matches
were decided by pins. In the
lower weight class, Mel Fahs
proved victorious over Dave Cox,
and D. Anderson fell to Bob Ol-son.
Fahs now must test his skills
against those of Craig Carmean in
the semi-finals, while Olson awaits
the outcome of that contest.
The 177-pound class saw Randy
Inouye pin Ed Stone. In a very
close, hard-fought battle, Barney
Cox decisioned Dave Norman, 5-3.
Finally, there are two entrants
in the heavyweight division. In
the "battle of the big men," Don
Martin was scheduled to grapple
with Orlyn Lundborg during last
evening's consolation and semi-final
rounds.
As far as intramural team totals
go, before the press time the

Claire, and single games with La
Crosse and Carleton.
Coach Cox said this was the
"toughest schedule a Bethel base-ball
team has taken on. It is also
the best — the kind of schedule
we should be playing."
Twelve returning veterans,
including seven regulars, prom-spots
open in the distance events
and one each in the shot and
discus.
Any students who have had any
track experience or would like to
try their hand at track and field
are urged to talk to coach Glader
in his fieldhouse office.
